january craft: weaving

I'm such a sucker for Instagram marketing. I learned about this really awesome subscription box from some of my favorite Instagrammers that sends you crafting supplies each month for a new project. Taking the guess work out of trying new things? Sign me up!

The January box from The Crafter's Box is a weaving kit. They sent the loom and all supplies needed to create a beautiful weaving. I'm never sure about my penchant for actually finishing things, and I told myself that if I didn't start the weaving by the time my February box payment was due I would cancel my subscription. Well, I started it and finished over the course of a long weekend. And let me say that I LOVE the idea of weaving. It was a great change from knitting. The Rya weaving looks gorgeous on my wall and I have that sense of pride that I haven't felt in a long time.

You guys, I made this! And I had fun doing this!

Who knows, maybe I'll make a couple more to work my way through my yarn stash. January craft = success.
